Meters & Usage

How do I read my gas meter?

There are a variety of meters, ranging from the complicated dial meter, to the latest and greatest smart meters we install for our customers. 

If you do have a dial meter, please follow the below instructions:

• Read ALL black dials from left to right

• Dials next to each other move in the opposite direction

• If the pointer falls in between numbers, always note the lower number

• If your pointer is between 9 and 0, 9 is classed as the lower number

• Ignore any Red Dials

Remember to chat to Ruby if you still have a traditional dial meter. Our Customer Services Team will check your eligibility for a smart meter upgrade, and we can help you read your meter until your smart meter is up and running.
